The Color of Hate

The blade has no sense of hate,
Nor can a gun or its bullet
An enemy make

Hands are directed by
Evils ominous plan…
Tearing and thrashing,
Delivering brutal blows to
Their fellow man

Blood spilled for vengeance,
Greed, power or envy…
From the beginning of time,
Vain notion of superiority…
The tragic human fallacy

Dwelling much deeper
Than the pigment of skin,
More intricate than dialect,
Global location or
Disparity of religion

The color of hate
Has no tincture at all
It’s the beast of darkness
Occupying anguished barren souls
